Up to 62f here today. Had a fine walk at lunch...a bit late and a bit windy but fine never-the-less.

Much cooler tomorrow.

Hi Kenny

No, Antarctica is subject to seasons just like everywhere else in the world, due to the earth's axial tilt and its revolution around the sun. In summer (now) we have long daylight hours - we have night again now but for a month or so we had 24 hour daylight - and relatively warm weather. In winter it will be the opposite - shortening daylight hours down to 24-hour night at midwinter and very cold! It's just that, even in summer, it's like winter in the midlatitudes. It's like northern Canada or Alaska, only at the opposite time of year.

Thank G_d it's not me!

Mid to upper 40's but overcast out there looks cooler than it is....may bundle up and take a walk anyway.

Beautiful blue, blue skies. Not often that blue at this time of year, generally it's a bit more hazy.

GeoffC · 03-06-2011, 05:42 AM

Bone numbingly cold outside, despite the sunshine - that wind's evil - too darn lazy to go around it has to go through !

desertblues · 03-06-2011, 05:50 AM

Blue, nice, sunny and cold on this sundaymorning. We'll be going out for a bike ride along the canal later on. It has to be just a bit warmer for me to go out today.

kennyc · 03-06-2011, 06:26 AM

Predicted High of 50F here today but overcast turning to snow high of 30 tomorrow....I'm ready for SUMMER!

desertblues · 03-06-2011, 09:12 AM

Cold and a flat tyre.

Nice and warm in my house again.

Nice sunny weather today, a bit windy. No idea how the temperature is, I stayed inside (but with the windows open, so it must have been mild).

kindlekitten · 03-06-2011, 01:36 PM

cool and sunny. a friend is giving me 8 pine saplings. I need to go get them and plant them today.

Sunny here, too. Just a bit chilly but very nice. Spring cometh!
